We strive to help change lives, nurture dreams, and discover creative potential through art.

The Tubac School of Fine Art is the Adult Education Program managed by the Tubac Center of the Arts. Located at El Presidito, the school and surrounding area is an historic destination with distinctive architecture and alluring patios. El Presidito is also home to studio-galleries of several top Tubac artists.
